Passage 8.49.1
οὐ πόρρω δὲ τῆς ἀγορᾶς θέατρόν τέ ἐστι καὶ πρὸς αὐτῷ βάθρα εἰκόνων χαλκῶν, αὐταὶ δὲ οὐκ εἰσὶν ἔτι αἱ εἰκόνες· ἐλεγεῖον δὲ ἐφʼ ἑνὶ τῶν βάθρων ἐστὶ Φιλοποίμενος τὸν ἀνδριάντα εἶναι. τούτου δὲ Ἕλληνες τοῦ Φιλοποίμενος οὐχ ἥκιστα ἀλλὰ καὶ μάλιστα ἔχουσι μνήμην, γνώμης τε ἕνεκα ἣν παρέσχετο καὶ ἐπὶ τοῖς ἔργοις ὁπόσα ἐτόλμησε.
Not far from the marketplace there is a theater, and beside it pedestals which formerly bore bronze images; the statues themselves no longer remain. Upon one of these pedestals there is an elegiac inscription stating that this was the statue of Philopoemen. This Philopoemen is remembered by the Greeks to an exceptional and indeed to the greatest degree, both for the wisdom he manifested and for the boldness he showed by his deeds.
